On monday morning, Otello advertised his car for sale on a card displayed in his local supermarket. Arthur, who was looking for a vehicle to buy for his daughter, saw the advertisement on Monday afternoon and went straight to Otello's house, offering to buy the car, paying cash. Otello refused to accept cash, telling Arthur that he would only accept a cheque, Authur left threatening to sue Otello for breach of contract. The following day, Bea came to look at the car. Later, after considering the matter at length, she wrote a letter to Otello on Wednesday afternoon, enclosing a cheque for the asking price. In the letter, Bea said that she assumed that the car was hers, unless she heard to the contrary.

If you want help with your homework you could begin by asking 'Can anyone please help me with this question, it's for my homework/study and I'm stuck'. A bit of humility and good manners go a long way, as there are some very knowledgeable people who use this site. People are often quite willing to help when they are asked in a proper manner, but certainly not when you come across as arrogant, as you have with the stream of questions you have posted today.
With respect I would suggest that vinshel has simply cut and paste this question directly from some sort of exam or test. The manner/tone of the question may not be his/hers but the original questioners.
